DUSTIN JACOBY VS JUSTIN LEDET LOWDOWN
Dustin Jacoby (12-5) embarks on his second stint in the UFC after his unanimous decision win over Ty Flores on Dana White’s Contender Series. We first saw the former Glory kickboxing competitor in the UFC all the way back in 2011 where he lost a decision to Clifford Starks and after another loss to Chris Camozzi he left the organisation to grow his record. He was 6-2 then and now hoping for a more successful run in the UFC.
Justin Ledet (9-3 (1)) has had mixed fortunes in the UFC winning his first three fights but is now on a three-fight skid. He won a unanimous decision over Chase Sherman on his debut and then submitted Mark Godbeer before earning a split decision over Zu Anyanwu. His skid started with a unanimous decision to Aleksandar Rakic, then ate a brutal spinning back fist from Johnny Walker and is coming off another unanimous decision against Aleksa Camur.
DUSTIN JACOBY VS JUSTIN LEDET PREDICTION
Ledet seems to have become a gatekeeper in the division and the UFC have given Jacoby a good match-up for his return. Ledet is a big rangy striker who will back himself to stand and trade which is exactly what Jacoby wants.
Ledet is better off getting the fight to the ground but if he tests his ego by standing with the kickboxer, he may just end up waking to a doctor’s flashlight.
Prediction: Jacoby via KO/TKO
